Those who stormed the capital were populist, several white nationalist and fringe Q folks. Good for them they made themselves known internationally as threats and will be dealt with from now on as such.
Point being what? The question is was it organized or orchestrated to overthrow a government.

The intention of the protestors was to delay the counting of electoral votes and intimidate them counting the votes differently from the votes cast by the state electors in December, which would be illegal had Congress done it. The intention was to have different President inaugurated in 2 weeks. They had stun guns, zip ties, with them, had tied nooses outside. If that's not a coups, what is it?

It was organized and orchestrated.
All the dominoes were perfect:
1. Little to no resistance from law enforcement
2. National guard MIA until nightfall.
3. Government officials and ex military joining (see guy 2ith zip ties)
4. Planning on the internet between groups to attend and weaponize.
